Product FAQs
7 answersWhat panelboards are compatible with the Siemens QJ22B070H?
The QJ22B070H is a unit-mount, bolt-on breaker designed for use in Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, as well as compatible Siemens switchboards and meter centers.
What does the H in the QJ22B070H catalog number signify?
The H indicates that this is a high-interrupting capacity breaker, specifically a Type QJ2H. It features an interrupting rating of 42kAIC at 240VAC, which is significantly higher than standard QJ2 breakers.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the QJ22B070H?
The load-side lugs on this breaker accept 6 AWG to 300 kcmil copper (Cu) wire, or 4 AWG to 300 kcmil aluminum (Al) wire.
How does the QJ22B070H mount into the electrical panel?
This is a unit-mount, bolt-on circuit breaker. It secures directly to the panelboard bus using bolted connections rather than a plug-on mechanism, ensuring a secure connection for industrial and commercial applications.
What type of trip unit is installed in the QJ22B070H?
This breaker features a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit. It provides fixed long-time protection against sustained overloads and fixed instantaneous protection against short circuits.
Can the Siemens QJ22B070H replace older ITE or Gould breakers?
Yes. Siemens acquired the ITE and Gould circuit breaker lines. The Siemens QJ22B070H is the direct replacement for older ITE or Gould QJ2H breakers with the same 70A, 2-pole, 240V, and 42kAIC specifications.
Can this 2-pole breaker be used on a 3-phase system?
Yes, a 2-pole breaker like the QJ22B070H can be installed in a 3-phase panelboard to feed a single-phase 240V load, provided the panelboard accepts QJ frame bolt-on breakers.
